Any ideas?

Unfortunately, CGI is an old and no more supported technology. I liked it very much but customers of these days don't accept CGI EXE web applications.

I used ASP/VBScript so far. In the future, I don't know.

Hello Enrico,
I will remeber a product called VBScript Obfuscator.
But it was 2004 when I last made a programs in asp.
Best regards,
Otto
